"Objection, your honor! He's reciting the opening to Quantum Leap."
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

[NAFDA]. This is where we talk about the show and ancillary materials such as web comics! Anything that's aired in the US (including promos) is fair game. No spoilers though -- if you post one by accident, an admin will delete it. Chuffa, Chuffa!

All is well that ends in pizza.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Carnival guy has been in love with Ellen Tigh for forever and kidnapped her last week. She's taking it a little too well.
Hiro's had a brain tumour for quite a while, which is made worse (in typical nosebleed fashion) when he uses his powers.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.
The Quantum Leap line made me laugh and laugh.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
The magical healing of Hiro, NSM.
Uhm, I actually think that was meant to be symbolic of him fighting to survive, and that the large number of doctors and surgical equipment did most of the actual saving.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Destiny is stronger than science = blech, but Quantum Leap was great (I daresay that that would be something Hiro's subconscious would totally pull) and seeing Kaito again was very nice.
I don't care for much of anything in Sylar or Samuel's storylines at this point.

Sylar encouraging Claire's lesbianity was beyond weird.

this is the first thing I've seen that makes me want to check out the show again. I have five eps on the tivo and I just am not motivated.

Our wings are not tired.
Sits with Vortex, except with 13 in the unwatched queue. I will likely just wait for the season to be over then marathon it. Or not. And yet I still read the thread for signs of hope.

I keep thinking that I should just watch the scenes with people I like, like HRG and . . . . um, there must be others, right?
